About Me

I am happily married to the most wonderful man I ever took a chance on. I enjoy time spent in the kitchen - it relaxes me.
As someone pointed out to me, the kitchen is often the heart of the home. It is in ours.

Mr. & Mrs. Potts!

Established November 8, 2008

This started as a way to chronicle my love of all things food - grocery shopping, cooking stores, recipes, baking, cooking and experimenting.

I found that however much I love food, there are other things that occupy my time/thoughts. Some serious - God, family, health, love and more. Other thoughts are definitely not serious - fashion, cosmetics, moisturizers, conditioner and perhaps even my search for the perfect pair of running shoes.

Why share all this with "strangers"? My husband, Mr. Potts, tells me I am a chatty Cathy something akin to a wind up doll where you pull the string and the chatting starts. He appreciates the fact that I choose to spare him (sometimes) all these random thoughts. Yet, he also benefits from my musings on food and my experiments in our kitchen.

Mr. Potts cooks!

Yesterday I had a last minute request to look after my niece and nephew while my mom went to the school that my niece will be starting next week. It was quite literally a last minute request, so I cancelled my plans to go to my Cardio Sculpt class (which is really a bummer since I'll be in New England next week) and headed off to my mom's after work.

The kids and I had a great time and I was glad I was able to help out.

When I got home and opened the front door, an amazing smell greeted me. Mr. Potts had made dinner! I sent him the recipe and made sure that he had everything he needed in order to make it. I think he surprised himself by how well it turned out. I did not take any pictures because we gobbled it down so quickly, but I'll throw one on here from Cooking Light.
